Ryan Grim and Katie Halper proving they are disingenuous.

They are both already moving the goalposts from "Biden needs to release the documents" to "The documents aren't important and can't disprove anything." This is their way to buttress her story as it falls apart.

They aren't interested in an investigation to the truth. They are only interested in pushing a story to hurt Biden, even when they know it is bullshit. They want to dig through decades of information to find a speech or conversation they can take out of context to beat on him with.

They either want to install Bernie as the nominee or for Trump to win so they can claim a socialist would have won and get to try to take over the parry again in 4 years.

BTW, I couldn't get the SF liberal radio going the other morning, so I went to Stephanie Miller's webpage and streamed from there. Their news came from some source with liberal or progressive in the name. It said associated with Brad Blog. The woman went on and on that Biden's campaign was in trouble because of reeely serious allegations of sexual assault that he had FAILED to address. I thought I was listening to Faux.

Who were those assclowns?

These people haven't the slightest interest in the truth of the matter. What they want is to make everyone sorry their 'revolution' has failed yet again, and do whatever they can to assist the cheap thug's remaining in office at the head of the christo-fascist right. Along with the rest of their ilk at 'The Intercept' they value wrecking the center-left far above dealing a present defeat to the far right, imaging that if they succeed, they will be the ones who lead the ruined workers to revolution....

the validity of the post, but if true - I expect we'll see several old 'friends' of Reade come out of the woodwork.

If it is, I pity Tara Reade. I pity her anyway. She seems to be ill.

I'm convinced someone is pushing her to do this; it's not all of her doing. Oh, I'm angry at her, I'm furious -- but even angrier at the people hiding behind her and using her. I hope they are unmasked as well.

she went on a Twitter tear and said #demexit ! because she believed Bernie was - I dunno, taken down by "the establishment" or something. Then, she implied she was going to time her accusations just so, saying things like "tic toc, and "tick tock" depending on the day. (Pardon me if this is redundant.)

I'm angry with her and yes, those using her. She appears highly unstable, at the very least. Further, it's easy to see her story has evolved greatly over time, in spite of her numerous accounts.

Meanwhile, a 25-time harasser/rapist/adulterer has already killed 60,000 Americans, falsely imprisoned (kidnapped) children and infants, and is bankrupting our nation. As a hobby, he's empowering the worst of our citizens.

And this is after selling out to Russia just to destroy us.

If all you're looking for is the "lesser of two evils", it seems crystal clear. Now ignore these two hacks and Mrs. Scarborough.

Biden is the only choice to lead us back into where we should have been before the four-year break from reality and sanity.

The White House MUST get an enema this November and release Trump back to the swamp.

to ignore them. However we can't let it stand. We must expose them so that when they come back with some other sabotage later everyone will know who they really are.

The next conspiracy theory will be that Tara Reade's complaint is not in the Federal Archives but among Biden's donated papers at the University of Delaware along with Obama's birth certificate from Kenya and Hillary's missing e-mails.

His goal is not to create journalism, but to help sink Joe Biden with his crappy reporting.
